Writer’s Memo: I am currently taking a wonderful class called the Colorado Writing Project. As part of this, I have been playing with words a lot. Poetry is one of my favorite forms to write. This poem captures a new mom (me) just a week or so home from the hospital with her new baby […]

Another school year is in the books. Last Thursday, we closed up shop on second grade (Jameson), fourth grade (Harper), year seventeen (Jason), and year sixteen (me). The year was, again, a strange one. It was fast, yet so many memories seem like decades ago. Jason and I are proud of our kiddos, who succeeded […]
We stole off to start summer. More to come when we return. Happy Memorial Day weekend. I hope it brings rest, family, and high hopes for the season ahead.
